    In The Blithedale Romance, we delve into the lives of four central characters navigating the complexities of Blithedale, a communal farm that serves as a precursor to the communes that emerged in the 1960s. Inspired by Nathaniel Hawthornes own experiences at a similar farm in 1841, this story explores the interplay between individual desires and collective living against the backdrop of the Industrial Revolution. The characters, driven by the Transcendental ideals of self-discovery and intuition, seek to liberate humanity from societal constraints, all while grappling with the daily challenges of agricultural life. However, a haunting mystery from their past looms over them, culminating in an unexpected tragedy. (Summary by Christine Dufour)
